Are you suggesting that combative measures would certainly ensure that this hurricane wouldn't have happened? If so, you may need to review the science yourself.

darkknight109 08/30/17 1:37:29 AM #16:	No, but nor should it, and that is true regardless of whether you acknowledge man-made climate change is real or not. I always get annoyed with people who take this attitude, even ignoring how tacky it is ("Hah, sucks to be you! If you'd just believed in climate change, your house and all your possessions would still be around!"), because it has absolutely no basis in science. Saying any one event is attributable to climate change is absurd, because the science simply isn't that precise. For all we know, this one particular storm could have been worse in a world without anthropogenic climate change. You can't attribute individual events to climate change; you can only note trends. Harvey is one data-point on the graph, not a trendline in and of itself. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster. Kill 100 men: You are a hero.

I also noticed you didn't comment on Google searching the subject where I'm sure you couldn't have found plenty of sources that you aren't biased against. I wonder why that is. That's because I didn't Google it. I also noticed that you didn't actually try to explain what climate change even is in your own words, gave me a link to a website that doesn't even work properly, and basically just told me to look it up myself, whilst assuming I had an inherent bias against the idea of climate change. I wonder why that is. (it seems to be the result of you making the assumption that I may be stupider than I actually am, which I must note that I find insulting, my good sir) EightySeven posted...
